Townsville | Full-time, permanent | Monday to Friday
Coreparts supplies and rebuilds braking and transmission components for mining haul trucks: calipers, discs, pads and seal kits for Komatsu, Caterpillar, Hitachi and Liebherr fleets. We're a small company operating in Townsville for over 20 years.
We're looking for a diesel fitter for a role that's roughly half workshop and half warehouse. It's Monday to Friday with no roster, so you're home every night.
Workshop (air-conditioned) — about 50%:
Rebuilding heavy-duty haul truck brake calipers: stripping, inspecting and cleaning components, measuring against spec, replacing seals and service items, and recording the work accurately. It's precise, safety-critical work. We'll train you in our procedures, so you don't need caliper experience coming in.
Warehouse (not air-conditioned) — about 50%:
Picking and packing customer orders, receiving and putting stock away, identifying and labelling brake and transmission discs and dry brake components, loading and unloading, and keeping stock records accurate.
Mechanical work on the company trucks, cars, tractors and workshop equipment, plus general maintenance and improvement jobs around the premises.
The role suits someone who likes variety and would rather find a job than stand around.
What you'll need:
Trade qualification as a diesel fitter, or a relevant mechanical trade
LF forklift licence and LR licence
Valuable attention to detail, and able to follow a documented procedure on safety-critical work
Physically fit and comfortable handling heavy parts with the right equipment
Basic computer skills for stock control
Able to meet fit-for-work requirements
Experience with heavy vehicles, mining equipment, brake systems or parts warehousing is useful but not essential. We're more interested in someone reliable who's after a long-term job than a long list of sites on a resume.
